Please include it inside future versions of OpenSuse and release it for previous versions. Not all of us use high speed fiber optic cable ;( you know.. |
| Linux-PHC | LinuxPHC is a project to enable Linux users to undervolt their CPUs. Just like NHC or Rightmark RMClock for Windows users can lower the voltages of their CPUs to expand battery time and reduce the CPUs temperature. | GPL | users | - |

| openSUSE Mobile Graphical Shell | A Graphical Shell for PDAs | GNU GPL | Everyone | For running openSUSE on mobile devices (HP iPAQ, Blackberry, Treo, etc.). May need set of applications for easy synchronization with computers running openSUSE.

This patch (there is also the standalone version http://popies.net/sonypi/sony_acpi.tar.gz) creates, in /proc/acpi/sony, the file fnkey the permits to enable, with fsfn software, the fn keys functionality |
| Gournal-Tablet-Pen | Notebook for Table-PC | GPL | Users | It's designed for usage with a stylus, not a mouse or keyboard.
It does not have handwriting recognition but can be used in co-ordination with xstroke to accept text. Gournal is written in perl using gtk2-perl so you will need gtk2-perl along with the gladexml and gnomecanvas modules of gtk2-perl. The pages are saved as gzipped SVG files (not totally standard yet but working on it) This is my first attempt and I have never used any M$ tablet applications (deleted Win before first boot) so I don't have any idea what features are good/needed. Please email Chris with any comments/suggestions There is now a wiki for Gournal available. Details Gournal looks/works just like a physical notebook with multiple pages. To save memory/speed load time it only loads pages when they are viewed so the app will not run much slower if you have 1 or 100 pages. Each page is named according to when it was created. The pages are saved as gzipped SVG files. Gournal has the following tools: * Multiple sections * Fine/Normal/Medium/Think Pens * Eraser * Highliter * Typed Text * Time-stamp * Zoom * Infinite undo/redo * Delete entire strokes * Networkable pages * Insert Images * Load a file as the background --Zunami 09:22, 13 May 2007 (UTC) Why exactly do we need Gournal? We have already Xournal and Jarnal which do a great job under KDE/GNOME/... . I see no need to package anouther '*rnal' tool atm. --dkukawka 29. Oct 15:44 CET 2007 |
